Genesis 17:21

The Covenant of Circumcision

20As for Ishmael, I have heard you, and I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and multiply him greatly. He will become the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation.21But I will establish My covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this time next year.”
